This is a tab/mp3 purchase only. Purchase a Gold Pick membership to download these for free! This ol' fiddle tune is in "D" and we're gonna learn to play it in Drop D tuning. The first A & B parts are the basic melody, while we spice up the 2nd ones. Don't forget to download the 3 speeds of rhythm tracks!

    Just want to say the multiple camera angles make all the difference. I could actually see what the right hand was doing.

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

    Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.

    Memorization comes from playing it at a tempo you can think at. If you need the tab, you're playing it faster than you know it.
